The pavilion is located In the heart of the city and easily accessible from all points. A consistent scheme of decora tion has been carried out by the mer chants and the Cherry Fair committee, and the effect was very pleasing. The pavilion itself is roomy and, well appoint ed, and gave excellent satisfaction.

Among the many big enterprises of Chi cago, the wonder among the big cities of the world. Is the Woman's World the world's greatest magazine success. nhis phenomenal success was achieved because it was the FIRST MAGAZINE to supply the BEST LITERATURE to the masses In the small cities and towns at the lowest cost a dollar-a-year magazine for 25 cents a year. The most famous writers and thinkers of the country, whose work form erly could be had only In the high-priced 15 and 25-cent magazines, are contributors to the Woman's World, and this explains the phenomenal growth of the Woman's World. It has a circulation of over 2.000.000 copies a month. OFFICIAL PROOF OF WHICH ANYONE CAN HAVE FOR THE) ASKING. This is the largest circulation of any magazine in the world. THIS MAGAZINE IS CHARGING THE HIGHliST RATE FOR ADVERTISING. The regular advertising rate is $8 per line. $112 per Inch and $4200 per page per insertion, and every issue is crowded with advertising during the busy season for the reason that business men, who depend on advertising for their suc cess, are finding It a better and stronger puller than any other magazine In the world. Our last March Issue carried as much as (90.000 advertising and had to leave out over 20.00O desirable advertising which came too late and could not be accommo dated for lack of facilities. The Woman's World carries clean, desirable advertising only. ADVERTISING AMOUNTING TO i'50.O00 A YEAR IS DECLINED BECAUSE OF ITS UNDESIRABLE AND OBJECTION ABLE CHARACTER, although other period icals accept and publish such advertising. The Woman's World was started about ten years ago with only $1000 and brought to Its present gigantic proportions by my own work. How fast this magazine (the pioneer !n the Held to give the masses a high-grade magazine for 25 cents a year) has grown la evidenced by the fact that In the last few years we had to move several times, each time to larger quarters, until It now takes THREE BIG BUILDINGS to accommodate our enormous business, which employs over 500 people. A Mammoth Magazine Printing Plant. One of the largest. finest and best equipped, magazine printing plants turns out this magazine. In addition other periodicals of very large circulation are printed by us. The Currier Publishing Company, an Illi nois corporation, owns the Woman's World and this gigantic printing plant. Both have always been splendid money-makers. How otherwise could I without money from outside shareholders have built up this great enterprise? A Rare Opportunity for Investors. A block of the 9 per cent preferred stock of our company Is offered to investors for a short time only at $56 a hare. THIS STOCK IS TREASURY STOCK. Issued for betterments and extensions and to provide means for the constantly growing business. Conditions have never been more favorable to doubling and even trebling our business than now, when we are heading toward unprecedented prosperity. It is the ambi tion of every growing business enterprise to expand. We are now seeking outside cap ital for the very reason for which other hig enterprises have recently been selling secur ities for example: Armour & Co.. who have recently Issued $30,000,000; the Cudahy Packing Company, which just Issued $4.000.. 00H, and Swift & Co., who issued $10,000,000 new securities for It is better to be inde pendent of banks, as IMPORTANT IM PROVEMENTS CANNOT BE EXECUTED WITH MONEY BORROWED FROM BANKS FOR A FEW MONTHS ONLY. $100 Makes $12,000 It is reported that Munsey'a Magazine stock, offered to the public a few years ago at $100 par value. Is worth today $12,000 and drawing $100 a month In dividends. The few who did not miss this rare in vestment opportunity have made fortunes. Mr. Munsey not long ago announced In one of hie publications that he is clearing over $1,000,000 profit a year. The Munsey Magazine has a circulation of only 00,0Oi) a month less than one-third of the cir culation of the Woman's World. The M agazine Business a Great Dividend Producer. There is probably no other business that Is so profitable as the magazine publishing business. The record of this business proves it. Mc Clure's. Everybody's. The Ladies' Home Journal, the Cosmopolitan, are making for tunes every year. The Curtis Publishing Company, which owns the Ladies' Home Journal. Is doing a yearly business of $.00O.OO0. Mr. P. F. Collier, owner of Col Tillamook County, and to procufe data on the commerce of the port, as he had been called upon to make reports on bar Improvements which had been turned down by the Board of Engineers at Washington.

As the citizens intend to undertake this Improvement, the, business men Impressed It upon Major Mclndoe that the Government should lier's Weekly, who died recently, left fcn estite of over $5,000,000. all made In the publishing business within a few years. Tet no other magazine has a circulation of 2.OO0.OO0. which we prove for the Woman's World every month. The Attractiveness of Our Proposition.

I would especially like to Interest a good number of investors who can investigate our great business and present condition, and judge Its great prospects. THERE IS NOTHING ABOUT IT WHICH WILL NOT BEAR CLOSEST INVESTIGATION. It Is a business w&ose earnings any one can almost correctly estimate every month by counting the number of Inches of adver tising contained In each issue and multiply ing by $112. the price of one inch per In sertion. This ENTERPRISE IS AN OPEN BOOK to investors, no matter where they live. Our Latest Improvements. Of late we have Installed. In addition to our already splendid equipment. $76,000 worth - of new machinery, consisting of a $40,000 Goss magazine press, built ex pressly for the Woman's World; additional MIehle presses; additional photo-engraving equipment, and four new automatic ad dressing and wrapping machines. These machines will enable us to reduce the cost of wrapping and addressing the Woman's World and our other publications about SO per cent. It will mean a. saving of ap proximately $2000 a month In the mailing department of our business alone. This saving, of course, means additional profit for our shareholders. Prominent Business Men Among Our Stockholders. We have a good number of prominent Chicago business men among our share holders, men who by connection or ac quaintance with the publishing business know what enormous profits thre are. In it. and therefore are in an excellent position to fully judge and value the splendid pros pects of the Currier Publishing Company. WHICH HAS BEEN SUCH A PROFITABLE BUSINESS FROM THE START THAT OUT OF1 ITS ANNUAL EARNINGS ALONE THIS GIGANTIC BUSINESS HAS BEEN BUILT UP. Had I owned ample capital when I started. Instead of growing as my means allowed, this business today. I am con fident, would be earning $1,000,000 and more per year, but I had to develop tt from the revenues of the business as I went along. It has, however, come to the point now where more rapid strides can be made with additional capital. , Earning. The profits of tho first three months rd 1901). when not a share of our preferred stock was yet sold, as tho offer of stocl, was made after the first quarter, wer $."0,000. As the 9 per cent yearly dividend on the preferred stock requires $45,000, th profits of the first three months -were sum clent to pay a full year's dividend on th preferred stock, leaving a balance of $14.nnm ON THIS BASIS THE YEAR'S PROFIT WOULD BE $L':iG.000. OR MORE THAJ NECESSARY TO PAY 9 PER CENT oH THE PREFERRED AND 9 PER CENT O.H COMMON STOCKS FOR ONE YEAR. By this one can Judge what enormous earnings are possible with additional capi tal.. Ours is not an enterprise In the experi mental stage, but a well-established one, that WANTS MORE MONEY TO DO BIG GER THINGS. As the money received from the sales of the stock goes into the business either for improvements or working capital, the as sets are enhanced by the very money share holders are invited to put up.
